    His information about the trees are accurate, no doubt about that. But Rs 50 is just nothing. But poor guys, but they are a pest too. These guys are a nuisance too.

    Hey there, just stumbled upon this video and it got me thinking... if anyone scammed like this pls rise your hand or a leave comment. I'm genuinely curious, how many of you have been scammed while traveling like this.

    Can't imagine what type of life these gullible travellers have lived to be suckered by people that obviously out to scam a few bucks out of these guys, no one to blame but these tourists....

    As seing in the video he has provided enough information about these trees in an interesting way.Sri Lankan authorities should do something to train this kind of people and use for tourism industry.
    Bro don’t try to viral your videos by having interesting discussion with people and blame them after the job done. That is not a quality work. You should have ignored him at the 1st time you saw him.
    This is a vey cunning video, sorry to say that.
    Thanks

      Yes, the video is cunning, not the scam. Why shouldnt other people see this so they know to avoid?

      I agree, thank you, especially because i didnt ask for anything. Camera overheating because i filmed alot that day and was quite hot, as my sweat shows 😂

      Not to me, that's 2 very tasty pastries from a hotel. That's 1 meal. I don't consider 1 meal small , especially for doing nothing.

    Dear
    He gave you lots of information even though we know that RS 350 less than 1 dollar.. it's even simple for locals.....then don't be disappointed
    It was reasonable... otherwise others will get it misleading.
    As a you tuber you have to follow other you tuber and gets more experience in traveling..
    Like davaud,coco boy ,and the maruwa......
    They were great at their travelings

      100 is too much for a few sentences ,
      the process is a scam not only the amount, first you give kindness then you force tourist in beging money and make the exigent , what this ? A pigeon trap , at least you ask B4 , this has to be clear tourists are not pigeons for local drinkers who sell wind , and bro was right 👍 ,
      His video are definitely better than coco marwa and others , i appreciate his own style , his own vibes , his kindness and humility , nobody has to copy x or y , and pack rate with tim tense are my favorites travelers, the most natural and humble, Don't try to drive people at your convenience , they are not your tv with remote , or your toy , travel yourself one day leave your confort zone then you'll see what is integrity authenticity and honesty, sincerity in positivity cause truth is truth , dont compare stupidly dolar and local money that's a donkey mind reflex , one rupee is one rupee & no falling from sky, wrong action deserves good treatment or it will grow more and more ,
      Tourists wherever whoever they are deserve respect they come from far , and be treated like a pigeon doesn't give mood to generosity , the fast need of alcohol half hiden was running in this old man , i would have give him 100 low kicks better than 100 rps to make him happy for spliting on my forced donation like this , i think you have never traveled yourself ...

      Your beginning is very stupid. How can you say only a few words, where are you proof of that?
      And brother, even if a beggar comes to us, we give even more. Even if you are beggarly, don't think that other people are the same.
      And foreigners coming to Sri Lanka will definitely compare rupees and dollars, even if you are not a fool like you.
      I have work, see you later
      Oh I just saw 777djin on you tube.

      Forcing people to donation is manipulation and that kills the generosity , it's not a question of any amount of money 💰 or value before, after change , nobody likes to be manipulated, generosity comes from the heart, not from an order , it's question of honesty also ,
      then your comment on how to travel and vlog like x or y shows that you have no respect , so stay in your pig farm and enjoy the best ,

      @@777djin bro I don’t know where you from, but for even one dollar U can’t buy a water bottle in here. And I agreed he was wrong, way he approach him. But honestly I think he share some voluble information. May be proper tourist guid can’t share. No offence, In UK I have seen many Romanian in the street begging without do nothing. At least this guy try to share his knowledge for something. It’s always fare to them from 1st attempt. Will Save both ur time. 🇬🇧
